Is this actually a song? If you look on this documentary "Driven", it talks about recordings which didn't come out as good, and it shows a picture of some tape titled "Tooth Scum". Does anyone know about this?
Here's the video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KrQT94I1 ... ure=relmfu" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Re: "Tooth Scum"?
I took a look at the clip in question. Almost all of the footage used in Driven is just generic b-roll. For example, the accordion close-ups were not footage of Al playing the accordion. The close-ups of the audio meters were not actually the meters in the studio when Al was recording a song. So, likewise, I would guess that 8-track shown that says Tooth Scum might be some other 8-track or possibly even a prop made by a production assistant while they were shooting that b-roll.
This is just an educated guess based on my experience in production. I could be way off base...

Plus Driven aired, what a decade ago? There would have been at least 14 threads mentioning this by now
